It is very very important to let you know. If you want to listen to the maximum performance of your Zanden system. Please come. No Doubt, it will be a new experience even for you--the inventor of Zanden. This orange thing is monster!!
Though a client of AE for many years, Wednesday was my very first visit to the new show room. I have to say the expereince was mind-boggling, much better than my own setup even though the components are essentially the same. My listening area is also much bigger than there.
The disappearing act is ghostly in a way that does not preclude naturalness. The soft side of the music in most system tends to be either hardened/sharpened or tendered/smoothed; not in this system. The balance of transiets and tonality is subjectively perceived by me to be very well controled. Otherwise, the palpability and the physical presence of the piano cannot be that realistc and holistic. The relationship between the main subject and the supporting subjects is defined by a conversational communication more than spatial definition though the latter is done properly too. That was evident in a Flute chamber music played by Accardo, Rostropovich, and names I have forgotten. The smootheness of the delivery carries scent of vinyl. It is neither vinyl nor CD. I guess the HDMI cable makes a huge difference too.
Last but not least is the natural recoil of the bass notes. The quality is not just definition of the bass lines but the energy propagation of it without crowding up everything on top.
The stuff was used at the right spot - preamp. I can see the stuff is chairing the whole show as far as in the kingdom of accessories.

Well done, good job.
